Hi. I'm a painter, a writer and a mother of three teenage sons, one with a severe disability. This is a journal: riotously disorganized, full of art, food, children and everyday domestic events. Unless you are a friend or family member you may not be interested, but you are welcome to look. Artists who are parents may find some
common ground here, as well as parents of children with special needs. For art only, see my site: nancybeamiller.blogspot.com

THANKFUL THURSDAYIt's not really a meme, but wouldn't it be a good one? This sweet thank you note is from a pair of twelve year old girls who recently came to look at my studio and ask me questions about being an artist. (Hope I didn't scare them off too badly: what with my small, cold, studio and my thrift shop couture!) Not a formal "career program", these girls were just on a visit to their uncle and aunt, my friends and neighbors, who thought this might be a good idea. I enjoyed talking with these two very intelligent and well-spoken young people, and I was later charmed by their thank you note! I've pinned it up on my studio wall, with great pride.
